Combining safety features that will impress parents with entertainment tech that kids will love, the Dodge Caravan is a terrific family car. The best part?

A Suite of Safety Features
We know safety features that help keep your family safe are the most important feature of any family car. That’s why the Dodge Grand Caravan brings together a suite of safety features, all built around a high-strength steel safety frame, for your peace of mind.
The ParkView rear backup camera switches on automatically when the van is in reverse, providing a wide-angle camera view of the area to the vehicle’s rear. All-speed traction control automatically applies brake pressure to wheels if they slip into a spin and can reduce engine power, helping maintain the vehicle’s stability. Combining the all-speed traction and electronic anti-lock brake systems, electronic stability control monitors the van’s motion and steering input to adjust engine throttle or apply brakes when necessary.
To help keep your most precious cargo safe, the LATCH system makes it easy to install LATCH-compatible child seats and restraints, while child protection door locks help prevent the sliding doors from being opened by small, curious hands.

The Latest in Entertainment Tech
Parents will also love the hours of fun provided by the Dodge Grand Caravan’s entertainment systems that will keep kids occupied and happy. The Caravan comes with three different levels of interactivity, so you can be sure to customize to get exactly the systems you want.
Wireless headphones, included with the available single DVD entertainment system, ensure that passengers don’t need to fight over what to listen to next. The USB port also allows you to connect nearly any music player directly. Plus, the Uconnect voice command and hands-free calling system keep the driver firmly in control, with your hands on the wheel.

Robust Yet Efficient Performance
The Grand Caravan’s 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine provides surprising power, getting a robust 283 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. Dual variable valve timing adjusts the exhaust valve and intake timing, leading to more efficient use of fuel. The Grand Caravan gets up to 25 miles per gallon on the highway, meaning you’ll have to stop less often to fill up on gas.

Personalized Appearance Packages
Available appearance packages make the Dodge Grand Caravan your own. The Blacktop Package, which is standard on the SE Plus trim level and available on SXT, adds a sporty look to the exterior and interior, including black headlamp bezels and a gloss black crosshair front grille. A leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, all-black interior accents with silver accent stitching, and 17-inch polished aluminum wheels with gloss black pockets add a touch of luxury.
